Just before Nihonbashi, it crossed the Sumida River at the Shin-Ohashi Bridge. From that intersection the road ran east into the Edogawa district, west toward Nihonbashi. A short way to the south, about twenty yards, ran Shin-Ohashi Road. He walked with his head down, burying his chin in his scarf. Though it was already March, the wind was bitingly cold.
